Yesterday, after a combined freeway/city drive in 90 degree weather (including a 40 min. stop with engine and A/C on), I turned off the motor upon arriving at my mum's house. I started the car a minute later and ... ...NOTHING happened. No sound, no click, no nothing on the starter.

I went back in for a drink(s)to drown my sorrows and to contemplate potential hassles to come. After about an hour...on a hunch (hunches work when you're in a "4th down and 20 on your own 10 yard line" kinda situation)...I turned on the ignition AND lo and behold....the M110 DOHC I6 motor ROOAARRED to life...(First Down!). :p

Benz aficionados out there, what went wrong and then corrected itself? Is this a classic "hot starter" syndrome or are there gremlins in there that tend to appear on hot days (which we have lots of here)?
